he never again mentions the left tonsil.  Even at the end of the dictation when he says the plan is to rule out a right peritonsillar abscess.  Same thing he said in chief complaint, except there he said "left".  Oh well....I flagged it and I'll let QA make the change.


Thanks for the advice.

Subject: that's a Coumadin dosage, not INR, wonder if the doc is getting ahead...sm

of himself about doing an INR level to make sure the Coumadin is therapeutic, not too much and not to little.  The INR level should be between 2-3 for most labs.  Sounds like he meant to say Coumadin, and may later on in the dictation talk about getting an INR level.  Hope this helps!

Subject: Hehehe, I guess I was a step ahead of that

I'm sorry,  Since I already have suprascript and subscript up on my tool bar, my instructions were what to do for O(subscript)2 so all you have to do is type O2 (normal script) and it changes automatically.  I don't like having to highlight the 2 and go up there and click the subscript button every time.  I would rather type O2 and let Word change it for me.    I try to get Word to do as much for me as possible.  I do this for cm squared, cm cubed, H2(subscript)0, etc.

Neuroforaminal versus neural foraminal (warning: rant ahead)
Subject: Neuroforaminal versus neural foraminal (warning: rant ahead)

I know this has been discussed before, but I have never typed anything except "neural foraminal," and when I first started with this particular account, all the templates had "neural foraminal stenosis" as one of the headings on the spine CTs and MRIs.


Now the "billing and coding specialist" who is in charge of the account (and who is obviously not a trained transcriptionist - she typed "flebolith" on one report I saw), has changed all the templates to "neuroforaminal," and when I just changed them back, she sent me a nasty little note saying "Don't change the templates."


Well, you should have seen the sorry state the templates were in when I started here. I have spent hours of my OWN time (I am paid by the line) not only cleaning up the templates but also standardizing the naming of the templates so that they can be found easily using the wild card notation.


I am tempted to send an email back saying, "Okay, I'll leave them that way, but 'neuroforaminal' is incorrect" but I am leaving this account as soon as they have my replacement trained.


In fact, I just sent it. I'm leaving, got nothing to lose, and actually have more work than I can comfortably handle right now. I really wish she would tell me she didn't need me any more.


Oh, I just got her reply: "Actually, no it is not [incorrect].  That is how it was always spelled before we hired ____________ [MTSO] and that is how all of the rads wanted it spelled."


So be it.

Not all words would get the extra t. I think it depends on the vowels that precede the t. Getting, not geting. Sitting, not siting. Beating, for example, is an exception. My bad.

Subject: Correction

Actually we are in some cases responsible for the content.  It is the opinion of a nurse friend of mine that we shouldn't be since we are not in the chain of responsibility.  However, when a doctor dictates Synthroid 100 mg do you type what he says?  What if the BP is 210/100 and he says hypotension.  We don't type that if we don't want a poor audit and in some people's cases, poor audits equal pay cuts.  So yes we are responsible for pertinent medical content.  In my opinion if a doctor says something rude or ignorant, leave a blank and let him type it or rethink what he said.

Quit correcting typos. We need support, not correction.
Subject: Quit correcting typos. We need support, not correction.

This is not direct specifically at you. I wish everyone would quit being so darn picky in these forums. We are all tired and just needing help on the question. We are all typing without spell check in this program which we are all very accustom to relying on. Give us all a break....and yes...I am SURE that I have a typo in here and don't care. This is where we come for support, not correction.
